With just a few casual words, I've swept the music scene.
Chapter 4 Replay
Wang Ke looked at her quietly and asked, "Are you willing to come with me?"
"I do!" Lin Qianyu nodded without hesitation.
“But following me will put me under a lot of pressure,” Wang Ke said. “Immense pressure.”
"Why?" Lin Qianyu asked, puzzled.
"Because the woman in my story is named Chen Yuting," Wang Ke said calmly.
Lin Qianyu's eyes widened in shock!
Chen Yuting?
She is an unparalleled talented woman who single-handedly elevated the Chinese music scene to several levels!
He's the idol I've been obsessed with for eight years!
actually……
Wang Ke didn't add anything further, he just watched her quietly.
After a long while, Lin Qianyu calmed down and asked, "There's someone on Weibo called 'Overturning Heaven and Earth'..."
“It’s me,” Wang Ke nodded.
"I'm sorry..." Lin Qianyu lowered her head.
"Why apologize?" Wang Ke frowned.
He felt a little heavy-hearted, thinking that Lin Qianyu wanted to reject him.
That would be such a shame.
He wasn't feeling sorry for himself, but for Lin Qianyu. She was so much like Faye; if she gave up collaborating with him, she would forever miss out on those classic works.
As for himself, it doesn't really matter whether Lin Qianyu is there or not.
There are too many good singers in this world, you can find them everywhere. For him, he could just find a few, train them a bit, and turn them into a legendary singer.
As for the declaration "tonight at 10 pm," he didn't take it to heart at all.
"Turning the world upside down" is just a small influencer in the end. So what if it breaks its promise?
A shameless person is invincible; just look at Chen Yuting to understand this principle.
“I’ve cursed you on your Weibo before…” Lin Qianyu blushed and lowered her head.
Wang Ke was taken aback: So that's why?
"Do you believe me?" he asked.
"Thinking about it now, you're absolutely right," Lin Qianyu said. "If you take away the idol aura, then apart from the eight main singles, Chen Yuting's other songs aren't really that good. But your song is really good! More importantly, the fact that you wrote this song so quickly after hearing about me is enough to prove your talent! I've never seen anyone as amazing as you! Really!"
Wang Ke smiled.
Congratulations, young lady.
“There’s something I need to make clear beforehand,” he said seriously. “I will make you a star in the public eye, but during that process and even afterwards, you will suffer…”
"I understand." Lin Qianyu interrupted him directly, and said just as seriously, "Uncle, don't worry. Don't forget, I'm the kind of person who's ruthless enough to kill even myself!"
"..."
Wang Ke felt that something was off about those words, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.
Okay, let's get down to business.
He used a secondhand printer next to his computer to print out a pre-prepared contract template, which was a singer signing contract for the "Overturn Culture" entertainment company.
"It's a ten-year contract, and the rights and responsibilities are clearly stated. Take a look, and sign it if you're okay with it," Wang Ke said.
Lin Qianyu signed it without even looking at it, and then asked, "Do I need to put my fingerprint on it?"
Wang Ke took a deep breath.
This little girl is really something!
Aren't you afraid this is a contract of servitude?
The other party's unconditional trust, ironically, put immense pressure on Wang Ke. He had initially intended to use this girl as a pawn, but now he felt he had to take responsibility for her.
Why did I suddenly develop the mindset of an old father?
"You can't be so careless in the future," Wang Ke said seriously. "You're lucky you ran into me. What if you'd run into someone with ulterior motives?"
Lin Qianyu blushed instantly: "The company I signed with before had ulterior motives... Don't worry, I have experience with this kind of thing!"
Wang Ke was speechless again.
Setting up the phone, connecting the wireless microphone, and having Lin Qianyu stand against the wall, a small recording studio was set up. Wang Ke explained the song to her again, then recorded a singing video of Lin Qianyu, did some simple editing and added subtitles, and the work was complete.
At this time, there were still about ten minutes left until ten o'clock.
The internet has already buzzed with excitement.
Beneath that "earth-shattering" Weibo post lay nothing but mockery and insults:
"It's almost ten o'clock. I'm going to see what you can come up with! If you can't, you're a dog!"
"I really don't understand, how big of a nerve do you have to do something like this? It's one thing to question Chen Yuting's song, but to have the audacity to write a song to compare with hers? That's shameless!"
"You can try to ride on the coattails of celebrities, but you have to compete with them in songwriting. Aren't you just asking for trouble?"
"It's almost ten o'clock! Don't be a coward!"
Wang Ke opened Weibo, clicked on the comments, and laughed as he read them.
Lin Qianyu came over, but couldn't stand it after reading only a few lines.
"Why are they saying such awful things?" she couldn't help but say.
They've completely forgotten that they themselves came here to curse back then.
“This is nothing,” Wang Ke said. “In the future, you will encounter cyberbullying that is even more terrifying than this, suppression by powerful figures that is even more terrifying than cyberbullying, and all kinds of smear campaigns, rumors, and baseless accusations…”
He looked at Lin Qianyu and said seriously, "If you feel you can't handle it, it's not too late to quit now."
Lin Qianyu looked into his eyes and said solemnly, "I won't back down! I want to fight alongside you!"
Wang Ke nodded and uploaded the video to Weibo and posted it.
It was exactly 10 o'clock.
"Hey, he posted a video! That bastard actually posted a video!"
"I'd like to see what kind of songs this shameless bastard can write!"
"You didn't just find a popular foreign song, add some Chinese lyrics, and post it online, did you?"
"It might even be copied from someone else!"
The internet immediately erupted in discussion.
After the mockery and insults, someone finally clicked on the video.
"Huh? It's a woman?"
"Why are you only showing half your face? Why don't you show your whole face!"
"It even has subtitles? Interesting."
"The song title is 'Chess Piece,' and the lyrics, music, and arrangement are all 'earth-shattering'?"
"The singer is Little Feather... So the singer isn't 'Turning the World Upside Down' after all!"
Just then, the sound of a piano began. At first, no one paid much attention, but as the music grew stronger and the more magnificent and powerful prelude began, many people were stunned, holding their phones.
"This intro is so catchy!"
Are you sure this isn't some world-famous song?
“I’m getting goosebumps!”
At this moment, the girl in the video gently opened her mouth, and a melodious song immediately began to play:
"I wanted to escape the territory you controlled, but instead I walked closer to the battle you arranged. I had no strong defenses, and no way to retreat..."
Everyone who clicked on the video stared blankly at the screen, their ears filled with the song, unable to hear anything else.
Then, the lyrics that struck straight to the heart struck people’s hearts and shook every listener!
This song is not only about love, but can also be interpreted as about life.
Who hasn't had lofty ambitions in their youth, only to end up as a mere pawn that can be discarded at any time by others?
Being arranged, being used, being ignored...
"You never hesitated to make a move without regret, yet I am controlled by you..."
As the music ended, the sound of the piano gradually faded away, but people's hearts remained unsettled for a long time.
After a brief moment of disappointment, almost everyone immediately clicked to replay!
